Chevak Cup’ik or just
Cup’ik (and sometimes
Cugtun) is a subdialect of Hooper Bay–Chevak dialect of
Yup'ik spoken in southwestern
Alaska in the
Chevak (Cup'ik,
Cev’aq) by Chevak Cup’ik Eskimos (own name
Cup’it or
Cev’allrarmuit). The speakers of the Chevak subdialect used for themselves as
Cup'ik (as opposed to
Yup'ik), but the speakers of the
Hooper Bay subdialect used for themselves as
Yup'ik (not
Cup'ik), as in the Yukon-Kuskokwim dialect.
